Love the yellow starts. :) What do you think about going up to 5.25 units tonight? It's a bit sooner than we usually do here, 5 instead of 6 cycles, but still within what I quoted a few days ago from Tilley's page. Plus we are down to just a couple more days where you can watch more closely.

Note to any lurkers, this suggestion is just for Fa. We are playing catch up in dose after switching from Lantus to Levemir.

Hi Wendy. Yes it’s such a relief that we see more yellows.

Is it possible we do 5 instead of 5.25 just for easier drawing of insulin? :p So in future we can increase by 0.5u if needed?
 
Yes, you could do a 0.25 unit increase if you want. I was just hoping to get closer to a good dose before you get back to work on Monday. I suspect there are still a few more increases needed. But your plan works too, and I know how much easier it is to be on the line.;)

Thanks Wendy. That’s great to know. :DI was still struggling with 1 drop more or less when it was not consistently the same size of drop.

I will start 5utonight (Saturday night). Next Wednesday I don’t need to work, so maybe we can do a full curve on that day and do the increase from Friday night? So I can monitor during weekends. What do you think?
 
Sounds like a good plan. You do a good job testing at night too, so that should give us a good picture of the dose.

Thanks Wendy for guiding me through step by step. I would love to test more at night(+8+9) but I cannot keep my eyes open. :woot:
 
With Neko on Lev, I would get a before bed test, and use that to decide if I needed set an alarm for later around nadirish - Neko wasn’t very consistent on timing. So far it’s kind of hard to see when Fa nadirs on Lev. It’ll get easier when blues show up.

I see! I am hoping to see patterns soon. I don’t really mind getting up if I know what the best time is.
